Yes. The default templates that come with OOoLilyPond automatically insert
everything you type into a \score block, which causes problems if you are
doing more than a little snippet.
Use the following as an outline to create your own template and make it your
default. You will now have to include a \score { } block in your OOoLiliPond
snippet, but it gives you much more flexibility. NOTE: This template is for
doing church bulletins or 8-/12x11 folded booklets. Set the paper size and
margins to your preferences.
\version "2.11.15"
\include "lilypond-book-preamble.ly"
\paper {
#(define dump-extents #t)
#(set-paper-size "letter")
paper-height = 8.5\in
paper-width = 5.5\in
top-margin = 0.25\in
bottom-margin = 0.35\in
left-margin = 0.25\in
line-width = 4.75\in
% between-system-padding = 0.5\in
% between-system-space = 0.25\in
ragged-last = ##f
ragged-bottom = ##t
ragged-right = ##f
% system-count = #1
% print-first-page-number = ##f
% print-page-number = ##t
oddFooterMarkup = \markup { \fill-line { \hspace #0 { \bold \fromproperty
#'page:page-number-string } } }
evenFooterMarkup = \markup { \fill-line { { \bold \fromproperty
#'page:page-number-string } \hspace #0 } }
oddHeaderMarkup = \markup { \fill-line { \hspace #0 { "" } } }
evenHeaderMarkup = \markup { \fill-line { { "" } \hspace #0 } }
}
global = {
#(set-global-staff-size 14)
\override Staff.VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-0.5 . 0.5)
% \override Lyrics.LyricText #'font-size = #0.0
% \override Lyrics.LyricText #'word-space = #0.6
% \override Lyrics.LyricSpace #'minimum-distance = #1.0
}
% ly snippet contents follows:

% end ly snippet

OooLilyPond seems to be EXACTLY what I was looking for to write a book on
jazz improvisation.
I use Window XP and I can get it to insert simple scores in OpenOffice.org
such as:
\key c \minor \relative c'' { c16 es, d es c es d es c' es, d es c es d es }
which is the test given in the sourceforge webpage.
However, other scores that are created in LilyPond without problems, such as
this one given in the LilyPond tutorial:
\version "2.10.10"
melody = \relative c' {
\clef treble
\key c \major
\time 4/4
a b c d
}
text = \lyricmode {
Aaa Bee Cee Dee
}
harmonies = \chordmode {
a2 c2
}
\score {
<<
\new ChordNames {
\set chordChanges = ##t
\harmonies
}
\new Voice = "one" {
\autoBeamOff
\melody
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \text
>>
\layout { }
\midi { }
}
get quite a lot of "syntax error"s and "unknown escaped string"s and
"unexpected string"s.
Does OooLilyPond have a shorter scope than LilyPond?
I've tried running both "lilypond.exe" and "lilipon-window.exe" as the
executable on "config", with the same results.
Thank you!
